RAVIOLI
To prepare the broth: Cut about 1/2 inch from the top of the head of
garlic; wrap in foil and bake 1 hour in an oven preheated to 350 degrees.
Remove from the oven and set aside.
Combine the broth and herbs in a saucepan. Put over medium-low heat to
steep for 30 minutes. Strain. Squeeze the garlic into a small bowl and
whisk in a few tb of the broth. Stir back into the broth.
To prepare the crumb topping: Pour 1 1/2 tb olive oil into a nonstick
skillet, add the split cloves garlic and place over medium-low heat. Slowly
saute the garlic until golden. Remove the garlic from the pan and add the
bread crumbs, stirring well. Saute until golden. Transfer to a plate and
set aside.
Stem, seed, and finely chop bell peppers. Heat 2 ts oil in a large nonstick
skillet. Add the bell peppers and saute 5 minutes. Add the roasted garlic
broth and simmer 5 minutes.
Cook the ravioli according to package directions. Drain and add to the
broth with the peas; cook 3 minutes, stirring gently. Serve in shallow soup
bowls sprinkled with the crumb topping, minced herbs and cheese.
